Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, an apparatus of a user equipment (UE) may receive a configuration for an aggregate component carrier. The aggregate component carrier may include a combination of multiple component carriers. The apparatus may perform a half-duplex communication utilizing the aggregate component carrier. Numerous other aspects are described.
Claims29
An apparatus for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
- one or more memories;
- and
- one or more processors, coupled to the one or more memories, configured to:
- receive a configuration for an aggregate component carrier, wherein the aggregate component carrier includes a combination of multiple component carriers and one or more guard bands,
- wherein the combination of the multiple component carriers and the one or more guard bands of the aggregate component carrier is used to perform a half-duplex communication;
- receive an indication;
- and
- switch from operating in the multiple component carriers to operating in the aggregate component carrier based at least in part on the indication.
An apparatus for wireless communication at a network entity, comprising:
- one or more memories;
- and
- one or more processors, coupled to the one or more memories, configured to:
- transmit a configuration for an aggregate component carrier that includes a combination of multiple component carriers and one or more guard bands, wherein the aggregate component carrier has a common configuration across the multiple component carriers,
- wherein the combination of the multiple component carriers and the one or more guard bands of the aggregate component carrier is used to perform a half-duplex communication;
- receive an indication;
- and
- switch from operating in the multiple component carriers to operating in the aggregate component carrier based at least in part on the indication.
